Benefits of studying with Berlitz

Private teacher to focus on exact needsMany people have previously studied at language schools where they are in a group of 10-15 people, but still don't feel like they improved much. With so many people in one class, students never get enough attention to their exact needs. Berlitz courses overcome this with mostly private 1-on-1 classes or small groups of just 2-3 people, which are the most popular choice by our customers.

Fast skills improvementBerlitz is famous worldwide for the rapid learning speed of our customers. Due to the intensive training in a private class or small group, it is amazing how quickly you can improve – much faster than studying in a large group class.

Personalised content used to improve your performanceWe only use materials and focus on the skills that you need. We never waste time giving you practice in other areas when all you need is to concentrate on just one or two sections of the exam. This is why people choose Berlitz – we only give you what you need to achieve that high score.

Choose your own flexible scheduleAnother unique benefit of Berlitz is that we provide flexible scheduling. We don't force you to start on a certain date or time – you can choose the day or time that suits you, and you can change it each week to suit your busy life, whether it be for work of socially.

Berlitz teachers have taught all over the worldBerlitz's teachers have extensive experience in training students from all over the world. Most of our instructors in Australia have also worked for Berlitz in Europe, China, Japan, USA and South America.
